NICE!!! that's a very good looking one. Now be prepared for it to start beating everyone up lol.

[Angler]

He looks real mean!! You get him at Mike's?

The fish did come from Mike's. I actually got it from Renteria who bought it at Mike's. Not sure if it is male or female, the fish does have a history of punking it's tankmates. It's hanging pretty well with that RD/BP hybrid, ofcourse she don't run so it seems to confuse the aggressive fish. I'll try it in different communities but if not it can have a tank of it's own.

that looks MEAN

[zschweter]

I just bought a 10" male - anyone have a feemale??? - he's trying to mate with my Uaru by the looks of it....

[Bderick67]

Thanks all, he got a little beat up yesterday. Tangled with a red devil, he's been moved to the 180g tank.

[MrNook]

Very nice fish - good idea to move him as they cant hold their own with a RD - now you just need a Bleekiri - they get even bigger.

[Bderick67]

Hey Bderick how is your Polleni doing??I checked his pic out,that is 1 cool looking fish!!Is he very aggressive??

The polleni is doing fine, just chillin' in the 180g with my silver aros, he now has lots of smaller fish to bully if he can catch them. He isn't really mean but is territorial.

[vincenwp]

Just got this guy today.

[bombay_biorb]

[Grendel]

What an absolutely beautiful fish!

I know the photos were posted some time ago, but I've only recently joined MFK, so forgive the late post.

[armaggedonx]

Awesome pick up! looks mean as hell!

[Cichlaholics Anonymous]

I have a polleni too, and they are one of my favorites, yours looks fantastic!

[salsa]

When you get that 300 set up and running I have to come down there and take a look at all of your fish.

[Bllib]

Sorry about the beat up. Somebody had to teach him a lesson. Anyway he is beautiful...can't wait for mine to get that size.:headbang2
